Comentado por Therax

This quest went rather quickly, completing in 21 catches.

For some reason, even with 50 fishing skill (I've read elsewhere you need 30 to get this), I was simply unable to speak to Wizbang (I already did the Buzzbox series).

I found this tip on another site, and as strange as it seems, it actually worked. I ran south of the town, along the coast, until I zoned into "The Long Wash," (the words appear on the screen). Then, I ran east until zoning into "Darkshore," and proceeded to head back to town. Upon arriving, I was able to speak to Wizbang to get this quest.

Can confirm that you need 50 fishing skill for this quest. Fished until I got 30 but still no cigar, went on until I had 50 and then I could pick it up.

Comentado por castorjay

I got 7/8 within 17 tries or so, I didn't get the 8th until about 45 tries...so annoying.

Fished next to Gubber Plump for 18:43. Finished quest and also received many Rainbow Albacor and Oily Blackmouth. Increased fishing, cooking and made some cash from the blackmouth.

I'm having a good time fishing at The Long Wash, near the boat that goes to Wetlands. It has a high drop rate for Darkshore Grouper.

I caught all 8 Gaffer Jacks in 43 casts, from the dock, right at coordinates 34.42. It took me just over 15 minutes to catch enough Gaffer Jacks.

I started with fishing @ 87 and ended @ 110

In the first 11 casts I caught:

1 Stranglekelp
1 Stranglekelp x 3
4 Darkshore Grouper
1 Raw Rainbow Fin Albacore
2 Rumsey Rum Light
2 Raw Slitherskin Mackerel

The first 11 casts were adjacent to a floating debris, which disappeared after I caught the second Rumsey Rum. I caught my first Gaffer Jack immediately after the debris disappeared/was exhausted. I would guess this indicates that objects like Oilymouth schools and Debris interfere with the Gaffer Jack spawn rate, so you should avoid these things when fishing for your Jacks.

In the next 23 casts, I caught:

10 Rainbow Fin Albacore
8 Slitherskin Mackerel
5 Darkshore Grouper
&
7 Gaffer Jacks

It took me 9 more casts to catch the eighth and final Gaffer Jack. I also caught:

2 Slitherskin Mackerel
4 Rainbow Fin Albacore
3 Darkshore Grouper

Just want to clarify that you can accept this quest as early as Lv 12 and with 1 fishing skill but you must have a BASE skill of at least 50 in order to catch gaffer jacks. Bait and rod boni don't count towards it.

Comentado por DrGerm

For the Love of God; if you wish to retain your sanity, DO NOT PICK UP THIS QUEST.

Comentado por Bengal

THIS QUEST REQUIRES FISHING LEVEL 30! Please make a note of this in the quest entry.

FWIW and this was probably a coincidence but when I went to fish for the Gaffer Jacks from the rock in the screen shot I was 3 for 4....

Comentado por 158647

standing on the island with the debris at 35.1 53.7 caught all 8 gaffer jacks and 6 darkshore grouper in less than 6 minutes.

Comentado por 161328

You can fish for these and get well-rested at the same time if you fish where the dock connects to the inn in Auberdine. Under the pier works well--you don't necessarily have to fish off the balcony of the inn.

It took me quite a few casts before I caught them all, so you may as well get a little bonus while you fish.

Comentado por Neanor

Took me about 45 minutes to get them all. Very annoying quest.

Comentado por redback

In patch 3.0, I spent about 30mins fishing near the shore and gone nothing, the next day I tried again from the end of the pier, and got all 8 in 8 casts.

Comentado por 148036

After 3.0, most fishing quests yields quest items with (close to) every cast.

Comentado por 137768

8 casts - 8 catches.

Comentado por 291940

If you already have good fishing, this is a breeze. Started with 101 or 102 fishing. 8 casts later I had 8/8 Gaffer Jacks for this quest AND 6/6 Darkshore Groupers for The Family and the Fishing Pole quest. I fished off the left side of where the inn meets the pier area.

Comentado por 253195

I got all my gaffer jacks in 8 casts along with 8 darkshore grouper,
I guess luck may vary

Comentado por Aislinana

I did this quest today with level 250 fishing to gain rep/Loremaster achievements. I fished out in the ocean on a whim, using water walking pots and caught the gaffers in 8 casts. I guess they changed the drop rate.

Comentado por cheriemarie

I did this quest at level 80 while working on the Loremaster of Kalimdor achievement. This quest DID NOT count towards that. Since a gnome gives the quest, I guess it may be possible that it counted for the Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms, but I can't verify that since I wasn't tracking it. I will check, when I do the follow-up.

EDIT: Ok, I'm guessing profession-specific quests (this one is fishing) do not count toward the achievement. Didn't realize until after I did it, that it was a fishing-profession quest.

Comentado por injunuity

i did it at just before going onto the docks, you you can still see the zzz for the rested xp indicator. so, while fishing, why not build up your time on the blue bars lol would submit screenshot but it's temporarily disabled? *sigh* you'll just have to try it out while in Auberdine. just stand on the corner of the inn's platform, right where it joins up with the dock to the boats.

Comentado por 342870

it takes like 10 min to do it and the odds are like 1 in 5 :S
so its very boring and its good to have a lure

Comentado por Jhalad

Easily completed the quest while fishing off of that rock you can reach from the docks. Caught a bunch of oily black mouths and a crate to boot.

Comentado por capnbiff

What a grind! I don't think high fishing has any effect on the catch rate. I started with Fishing 204 and ended with 213. Used Gubber's lure, too, and it still took about 12 minutes and 49 casts, or just over 1 in 6 for Gaffer Jacks, spread pretty evenly throughout the entire time. Caught 17 Rainbow Albacore, 16 Darkshore Grouper, 12 Slitherskin Mackerel and 4 Oily Blackmouth. Bring a good book.

Comentado por 315177

It says that the catch rate is only 5%, but I got them all in 15 minutes, about 30 casts. It's much easier than you may think.

Comentado por 423105

I Fished at guffer blump.. or w/e
I started this quest with the guffer blump family fishing pole and 3baubles i finished in about 13mins starting at 36 fishing and ending at 68fishing also getting the achievment and the achievement.. good fishing xp but a waste of time for XP

Comentado por 430125

This quest took me about 10 minutes. I just stood right underneath the dock behind the inn, staying rested. When i started, my fishing was at 38, and when i finished, my fishing was at 74. I was using a shiny bauble and got a point for EACH CAST. I caught several fish, including rainbow fin albacore, darkshore grouper, oily blackmouth, and slitherskin mackaral. I even caught a dented crate once, containing two coarse blasting powder. The first 3 gaffer jacks came right in a row, after about 10 useless casts. Then several more uneventful casts, followed by 3 more jacks in a row, then about 5 more casts, then my 7th jack. The 8th one took about 15 casts to get. I did notice that claims from other posts about having a better chance once fishing is about 50 does seem to be true. I didn't even catch my first jack until i was almost 50.

Comentado por magicpower

this quest reminds me of the product "jaffa cakes" i not sure if any 1 else throught that :P lol was abit hungry when i did quest

Comentado por 444605

Stand right beside the quest giver 36,44. Took me 83 cast and i had all the gaffer jacks that i needed and all the grouper for the quest the family and the fishing pole.

Comentado por 447729

On average, every fifth cast I got a gaffer jack. Though I do have 446 fishing, I don't know if that really matters anymore. I fished where Gubber Blump is. According to the quest description, you could probably fish anywhere. :)

Comentado por 240979

I fished with a skill of 485 near Gubber. It took 38 casts.

Comentado por 204240

I managed to get mine in under 10 minutes at 34.0 and 42.4

it's on the dock, to the right hand side ... inbetween 2 posts, there are
4 boards and seperating those boards are lines ... 3 lines ... you want
to go to the middle line ... close to the edge ... 34.0 and 42.4
happy fishing :)

Comentado por Gaerwyn

I placed myself next to the fat dwarf, threw the lure out 8 times, and got 8 fish + 8 gaffer jacks. With maxed fishing skill for the zone, it would seem like it is a 100% drop rate.

Comentado por 517945

All I did was stand on the log next to Gubber Blump. Got all 8 on the first 8 tries.

Comentado por 507722

You may know that i did this quest staying at 34,8 42,8 or you can simply understand 34,42 and throw the fishing line at the east and at any cast i threw i caught a gaffer jack. Quite easy quest.
I must remind that i had 44 fishing when i started it.

Comentado por 569300

i caught most of mine at 35.70, 48.08 (:

Comentado por pablodee

Yea 8 casts 8 jacks .... fishing to the left of QG

Comentado por 581980

Realized this quest just after I turned in The Family and the Fishing Pole and, new fishing pole in hand and at fishing level 70, started casting off the dock near Blump.

Got all eight Gaffer Jacks in eight casts, as well as 2 Darkshore Grouper, 3 Oily Blackmouths, and 3 Raw Slitherskin Mackerals.

Very easy quest.

Comentado por 394556

I can confirm, droprate has been increased to 100%, easy quest.

Comentado por trelliema

For those of you who are big on achievements and haven't taken the time to do the 1000 Fish achievement and whom haven't done this quest (a small number of people, but still...), every time you fish up a gaffer jack + whatever else (fish, junk, etc), it will count as 2 items on the achievement counter, thus taking half as much time to 1000 as it would have.

Comentado por Axyn80

Did this on my NE priest, lv 12, and i have to say, incredibly easy, out of 9 fish attempts, i got the gaffer jacks i needed. Fishing=Skill lv 58, went to 66, used the Strong Fishing pole, +5 Fishing skill there, and then i used the +25 bauble, giving me a +30 bonus. Overall, incredibly easy quest, and incredibly easy xp. One more comment, took less than 30 seconds.

Comentado por Johnnynjj

i fished right by Gubber Bump. Caught them in the first 25 trys :)

Comentado por Veria

According to Fishing Buddy, I had a 50% drop rate for these.

Comentado por HelpfulJoe

I noticed that every time I caught an actual fish or white item I also got a Gaffer Jack. So I guess if you catch a white item or fish, there is a good chance you will get a Gaffer Jack.

Gaffer Jacks Quest
Difficulty: 2/10

First of all, wow, seriously? You guys are having trouble with this? I did this quest for the first time not long ago (like, an hour or two ago), and I got a Gaffer Jack every single time I fished for one, all eight times. I thought it was just normal, that it was 100% you got one each time. I then checked this page, and saw people spent ages getting them.

For the quest itself, I just went to the lake nearby and started fishing. Took about six or seven minutes, and I got all eight Gaffer Jacks in the first eight attempts, so no real problems should occur. Just make sure you clear your fishing spot of enemies, which include mainly of Pigmy Tide Crawlers, although, these are not hostile until you make the first move.

Fun fact, A Gaffer refers to an artist or more specifically a Soft glassblower, in which Jacks is a main tool.

The Gaffer scribed a neckline with his steel jacks

Comentado por 664363

Caught all 8 at 34,42, right on the dock. I'm lvl 12, fishing skill 46, no lure nor bauble needed. Caught one Jack on every 2-3- casts.

Bring 8 Gaffer Jacks to Wizbang Cranktoggle in Auberdine.

	Capataz Jack (8)

Descrição

I came to Auberdine because of the quiet. I want to invent my inventions where it's quiet, because after a night of drinking I don't like all the noise of Ironforge!

So I took a ship to Auberdine and had a little too much to drink on the way. I dropped my box of gaffer jacks overboard! I need my gaffer jacks!

I don't know exactly where I dropped them, but if you fish for them in the ocean you might get lucky...
